The gap widens

By: Tim | Comments No Comments

It could well be one of the best and season defining weekends for everyone concerned at Leeds United.
A win against Yeovil and with Charlton and Colchester losing it means the Whites extend their lead at the top to 7 points. And with a goal difference of plus 21, it’s effectively 8 points.
And the last [...]

You wanted a reaction Simon.

By: Tim | Comments No Comments

There should now be a new entry into the dictionary for reaction. Because after Leeds’ 4-0 hammering of Bristol Rovers following their 2-1 defeat at Millwall last weekend showed the best definition of the word. Ever.
After losing their first game of the season at the New Den, it could have been one of those games [...]

Well…..it had to happen didn’t it

By: Tim | Comments No Comments

I suppose sooner or later we had to lose. And lose we did. Fair enough, can’t really complain with the start we’ve had to the season. One thing that slightly wrankles with me, it had to be to Millwall.
They have been a bogey team for us without question. Home and away, we just struggle to [...]

Bad memories revisited

By: Tim | Comments 5 Comments

It’s the one match where everyone sees it and think more about off the pitch action than on. Leeds vs Millwall. At the new den.
Leeds haven’t done particularly well at Millwall, the latest defeat, of a long line, was in the first leg of the play off semi finals last season.
A Neil Harris goal [...]

What a finale!

By: Tim | Comments 3 Comments

Still hoarse and full of adrenalin, I can only describe the final few minutes of the pulsating match at Elland Road as crazy.
A 92nd minute winner from Jermaine Beckford greatfully received after a terrible goal kick from Norwich keeper Fraser Forster went straight to the deadly striker.
With the defence turning their backs on the kick, [...]

Here come the Canaries

By: Tim | Comments No Comments

After a much welcome break from league action, Norwich City make their way to Elland Road tomorrow night in what i think will be the toughest match of the season so far for Leeds.
Our growing injury list has somewhat slightly reduced thanks to the 2 week break, but two major players in Becchio and Snodgrass [...]

Kandol giving food for thought…

By: Tim | Comments 1 Comment

When Tresor Kandol joined Leeds United in January 2007 after a brief loan spell, it was to a mixed response from fans. The somersaulting Congolese striker was signed by Dennis Wise from League 2 Barnet as a bit of a unknown quantity.
But a brace against Cardiff at Ninian Park in the league cup put [...]

The start of this season has been overall a fantastic one for Leeds, but as always i’m cautious.

personnel changes coming to Leeds

By: j | Comments No Comments

After unceremoniously bowing out the the playoffs, the hearty cheer of Leeds storming towards automatic promotion next year was echoed throughout the Elland Road set. Unfortunately, as foretold in the earliest stages of the previous campaign, should Leeds not win promotion the task would be far more complicated in the upcoming season as a number [...]

thank you for the incredible year

By: j | Comments 1 Comment

With the season now complete, I wish to thank everyone who visited since I started writing this blog. I cannot express in words the honour of writing about Leeds, to which I am very thankful for being given the opportunity by The Offside.
As of this time I am unsure if I will be returning [...]
